Ceramides are intercellular lipids naturally found in our skin that bonds dead skin cells together to create a barrier. They are known for their ability to hold water and thus are a great ingredient for dry skin.
Ceramides are an important building block for our skin barrier. A stronger barrier helps the skin look more firm and hydrated. By bolstering the skin ceramides act as a barrier against irritating ingredients. This can help with inflammation as well.
If you would like to eat ceramides, sweet potatoes contain a small amount.

I can’t believe it took me months to figure out that this product was the reason why my skin was so incredibly dehydrated. Threw it in the trash as soon as I figured it out. Just awful.
Unfortunately this drys out my already dry skin. I want to like this but it’s too harsh.

Holy grail product for me.
Overall great cleanser, used for ~5 months now.
Pros: Has never left me feeling stripped, irritated, or excessively dry/flakey. No fragrance. Makes my skin feel clean and refreshed.
Notes: I haven't noticed anything particularly hydrating about this cleanser (however, no cleanser is going to hydrate like a moisturizer/serum/etc so I can 100% let that slide). It cannot effectively remove Show more
